Perfectly Preserved in Elegant Vintage Style

Perfectly Preserved rubberstamp setThis gorgeous handmade card is a swap I received from one of my trusty swapping buddies Dorrie, and she takes the Perfectly Preserved rubberstamp set and brings in an elegant, vintage style.  To me, it's more elegant than shabby chic, and I love it!  Dorrie is very, very creative.  I love the way she combined the Cannery Framelits with the Apothecary Accents Framelits. All those shapes combine to form a lovely, unique design.  And the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons look gorgeous with the little bits of Orchard Harvest Designer Series Paper underneath.  That is a design technique I plan to use:)

Perfectly Preserved rubberstamp set is one of the fantastic new rubberstamp sets in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  Well, it may not be considered new now since the catalog debuted in August, but you know what I mean!  

The little pear image is stamped and then cut out with the Big Shot and coordinating framelits–Cannery Framelits.  Dorrie stamped and die cut two of the pears and layered them on top of each other, with one folded, to create a great 3D effect in this handmade card.  Isn't it darling??!!!
